Many atheists claim that science disproves the Bible. Despite these claims, science is actually quite consistent with Scripture.

Christians often feel unequipped to defend their faith in this area -- but this need not be so. Instead, any Christian can defend his or her faith against any scientific claim from an atheist, even without knowing the details of that particular claim. Why? Because science itself disproves atheism.

Atheism, when taken to its logical conclusion, denies the fundamental assumptions and requirements of science. Therefore, if science is valid, then atheism must be false.

In this presentation, engineer and former atheist Spike Psarris will present on "Defeating Atheism with Science," showing why this is true. Join us as we discuss how Christians can defend their faith in all areas of science. After a brief discussion of specific evidence like fossils, radiometric dating, and intelligent design, we'll dig deeper and see how science itself disproves atheism. Understanding a few fundamental ideas about science are all that's necessary for any Christian to be well-equipped in this area.

About the Speaker:

Spike Psarris was previously an engineer in the United States' military space program. He entered that program as an atheist and an evolutionist. He left it as a creationist and a Christian. He now speaks on creation and Christian apologetics, equipping believers to defend their faith and glorify their Creator.Purchase Spike's DVDs.

Rick Oliver explains his background as a micro-biologist and evolutionist and how he eventually came to Christ.

Rick Oliver has a B.S. in Biology from the University of California, Fullerton and a M.S. and Ph.D. in Biology from the University of California, Irvine. He is a member of the American Federation of Herpetoculturalists, the California Science Teachers Association, and the New York Academy of Science. He is now the Founder/CEO of Confound the Wise Ministries.

Dr. Richard “Rick” Oliver is currently the CEO and founder of Confound the Wise Ministries based in Tonto Basin Arizona. Confound the Wise Ministries is a unique Creation based Ministry dedicated to spreading the unerring Word of God through science education. In June, 2008 Dr. Oliver stepped down from his full time position as superintendent of the Mount Hermon Outdoor Science School which he founded.

Dr. Oliver served in this position for over 15 years at Mount Hermon Christian Conference Center located in the beautiful Santa Cruz Mountains in California.He designed and developed a science curriculum based on the California state science framework for middle school students (grades 5-8). The Creation centered experiential learning based curriculum not only allowed students to become more knowledgeable about their environment, but developed an appreciation, respect and responsibility for it as well.

Dr. Oliver earned his undergraduate degree in science at the California State University in Fullerton California. He later was granted his M.S. in life science with a minor in geology and went on to earn a Ph.D. in evolutionary biology with an emphasis in herpetology from the University of California. Dr. Oliver has participated in numerous scientific research projects over the course of his academic career including working with the Veterans Administration Hospital on extensive research on rattlesnake venom, major research projects involving both biology and geology at the Grand Canyon in Arizona and at the volcano at Mount Saint Helens in Washington State as well as several Dinosaur research projects in Wyoming and Montana.

Dr. Oliver became a Christian in 1987 and began lecturing on science regarding the origin of life from a Creationist point of view. As a gifted communicator affectionately known as “Ranger Rick” by both his colleagues and students his enthusiasm and knowledge of both biology and geology make him a popular speaker throughout the country.

Dr. Oliver is an adjunct faculty member a several colleges, both secular and Christian and has been invited to speak at churches and schools both in the United States and overseas.Dr. Oliver’s professional organizations include:

This fantastic video goes through amazing evidence that dinosaurs lived with man for 1000s of years. Many other plants and animals thought to have gone extinct millions of years ago have been found alive today. Scientists show the gigantic problems with dating the earth as billions of years old and fossils as millions of years old. They show that circular reasoning is used to date rocks and fossils.

Then they show how terribly inaccurate radiometric dating is and show more reliable methods that date the earth to around 6000 years. This agrees with all the soft tissue dinosaur finds that have come to light recently.

It is much more likely that the majority of fossils, including dinosaur fossils were made during and after Noah's flood, which is recorded in Genesis 6-8 in the Bible.

Evolution is shown to be mathematically and physically impossible. Evolution is a religion that is held to in spite of the scientific evidence!

Eisegesis? Ken Ham gets to the heart of the debate about the six days of creation. If we read from what the biblical text says (exegesis), it allows only one interpretation-six 24-hour days of Creation. Any other interpretation is eisegesis (when people"read into" the Bible).

In recent weeks (August 2011), we have received multiple inquiries about the historicity of Adam
and Eve, including e-mail questions coming through creation.com,1 questions after church talks, seminary courses we
have given, call-in questions during radio interviews, and questions after conference
presentations. This has been precipitated by a significant amount of press coverage
of Francis Collins and the other members of his organization, BioLogos.2 Collins was the director of
the Human Genome Project, and is currently serving as the director of the National
Institutes of Health, so he is no lightweight in science. Also, Collins claims to
be an evangelical Christian. When a person of his caliber speaks on the relationship
between science and faith, people sit up and listen.

It cannot be overstated that … the two theistic evolutionists are basing
their conclusions on evolutionary assumptions.

Yet, the things he has been saying are completely opposed to what CMI believes and
what the Bible clearly teaches.3
The rash of questions we have received of late center around his claims that there
is no evidence for Adam and Eve and that there is no physical way we could have
come from two ancestors in the recent past. A high profile article appeared in Christianity Today last June, in which the following quotes appeared:

“Collins’s 2006 bestseller, The Language of God: A Scientist Presents
Evidence for Belief[4]
… reported scientific indications that anatomically modern humans emerged
from primate ancestors perhaps 100,000 years ago—long before the Genesis time
frame—and originated with a population that numbered something like 10,000,
not two individuals.”

and

“In a recent pro-evolution book from InterVarsity Press, The Language of Science
and Faith, Collins and co-author Karl W. Giberson escalate matters, announcing
that ‘unfortunately’ the concepts of Adam and Eve as the literal first
couple and the ancestors of all humans simply ‘do not fit the evidence’.”5

We should always base our understanding about anything on the evidence at hand. This sermon provides us with evidence that solidifies our faith in the people, places and things we read about in the New Testament.

Some people think that believing in the Bible is just blind faith. The truth is, however, that having faith in the things we read about in the Bible is logical reasoning with all kinds of evidence every where we look.

This video contains audio by David McClister and presentation slides that explain and show historical and archaeological evidence to support the people, places and things we read about in the Old Testament.
